    Description

    FIELD OF THE INTENTION



    [0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of ketoxime ester compounds and, more particularly, to a ketoxime ester photoinitiator used for photo curing materials.

    BACKGROUND OF THE INTENTION



    [0002] In order to make photocurable materials (photocurable coatings, ink, photoresist, CF, BM), which are comprised mainly of unsaturated resin and the monomeric material thereof, take place polymerization and solidification by irradiating them with ultraviolet rays, X-rays or laser light, photoinitiators or sensitizers must be added. By irradiating photocurable materials with ultraviolet rays, X-rays or laser light of a certain wavelength, the added photoinitiators or sensitizers can produce active groups, and initiate unsaturated groups in the photocurable materials to take place polymerization and solidification.

    [0003] In photocurable materials, some traditional photoinitiators are widely used, for example, benzoin derivatives, benzil ketals, α, α'-dialkoxy acetophenones, α-hydroxy alkyl phenones, α-amino alkyl phenones, acylphosphine oxides, benzophenone/diphenylamine series, Michler's ketone, thioxanthone/thioxanthone carboxylic amide, amine hardener, aryl diazonium salt, aryl iodonium salt, aryl sulfonium salt, ferrocene, titanocene, hexaphenylbiimidazols, triazines and traditional oxime esters and so on. Because these traditional photoinitiators have demerits more or less sensitivity is low (both polymerization velocity conversion are low); solubility is bad (transparency is low and there is too much photoresist residue); oxygen gas has a great effect on photo curing; storage stability is bad and so on. Therefore the use of traditional photoinitiators and photosensitive materials is considerably restricted, the performance of photosensitive materials is also greatly affected, especially, these traditional photoinitiators not fulfill the requirements for the manufacture of BM and CF which are the key parts for new type of large-screen LCD, The emergence of a new oxime ester photoinitiator has solved above-mentioned problems to a great extent.

    [0004] The photochemical performance of oxide ester compounds first emerged from the literature reported by A. Wemer and A. Piguet in Ber. Dtsch. 1904, 37, 4295; while the application of oxime ester compounds as photoinitiator first emerged from the literature reported by G. A. Delzenne, U. Laridon and H. Peeters in European Polymer Journal, 1970, 6, 933-943, the trade names are DE-OS 179508 and Agfa-Gevaert AG. The oxime ester photoinitiator which once be produced commercially and used more widely is Quantacure PDO; structural formula for Quantacure PDO is shown below.



    [0005] Although these traditional oxime ester photoinitiators have high initiator activity, their thermal stability is low, and therefore they have been eliminated gradually. Resurrection of oxime ester photoinitiators first emerged from the literature reported by R. Mallivia et al in J. Photochem. Photobiol. A: Chemistry 2001, 138, 193 and the literature reported by L. Lavalée et al in J. Photochem. Photobiol. A: Chemistry 2002, 151, 27. Because of the introduction of diphenyl-sulfide and carbazolyl, which have bigger conjugated system and stronger intramolecular electronic transfer characteristics, stability and photosensitivity of the oxime ester compound are greatly improved. Two representative oxime ester photoinitiators which are widely used at present are OXE-1 and OXE-2; structural formulae for OXE-1 and OXE-2 are separately shown below.



    [0006] Wherein, OXE-1 is a typical ketoxime ester photoinitiator which is mainly used in the manufacture of BM RGB of large-screen LCD. Its price is very high, and the structural formulae have been protected by foreign companies' patents, publication numbers of which are CN 99108598 and CN 02811675. The disclosed synthesis methods of the compound having said structural formulae are very complicated, and demand high cost. The products having said structure have the defects of discontented using capability and thermal stability.
